Universal Serial Bus (USB) has become the connectivity workhorse of today’s PCs, replacing the familiar serial port. However, many commercial and industrial devices still use the RS-485 interface. To connect these devices to modern PCs, you need a simple and reliable conversion solution.
The 485USB9TB-2W offers USB to RS-485 2-wire conversion in a space saving, USB port-powered package. Simply plug the converter in and Windows will install the FTDI Virtual COM (VCP) driver software. The USB converter will appear in Windows Device Manager as an additional COM port. A one meter USB cable is included.High retention USB port holds standard USB cable connections firmly in place.
Locked serial number model version is also available.

USB has become the standard for connecting everything from sensors to controllers and motor drives to your PC or hand held computer. But USB was not intended for use outside of the electrically clean office or home environment. This can lead to expensive problems when you need to access data from a device installed in the field or in the factory.
Any time you connect remote I/O equipment to your computer there will be a risk for electrostatic discharge (ESD), power surges, ground loops, and electromagnetic interference/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI). Any one of these events could damage your USB port or your entire PC. Why take a chance? Protect your investment with isolation technology from B B SmartWorx.
